Usually one is already a thousand guan, let alone six at once. This alone costs at least 6,000 guan, which already accounts for half of his annual salary. Even if the old man gave him twice as much private money as he did when the family separated, can he afford to spend so much money just sitting there and doing nothing?
If there were no other ways to make money, my seventh brother would already be heavily in debt. How could he live so comfortably? But Huang Qiong doesn't know at least for now how King Yong can get money. Who knows if this guy is also buying land outside?
If this guy really buys land in a big way, according to his own plan, the interests of this guy in reorganizing the clan will be the first to be affected. In this case, it would be good if this guy didn't secretly cause trouble. Jia Quan's request, if King Yong is really willing to participate, will indeed be of great help to him.
However, this matter may also involve King Yong's own interests, but he may not be willing to get involved. Even if you don't object, you can already be of great help to yourself. Therefore, in response to Jia Quan's request, Huang Qiong could only think about finding a time to have a good talk with King Yong and find out what King Yong really thought.
Huang Qiong only hoped that the unreliable guy, but also the biggest gangster in the capital, and the most violent guy in Tianjia, could be more reliable this time. Don't be like other brothers, and if you have some spare money, you will buy a house and land desperately, and become a rich man.
But it was already very late at night, and Huang Qiong and Jia Quan, who were still discussing the matter, didn't know. At this moment, in a prince's courtyard in Jingzhao Mansion, two people were also discussing Huang Qiong, and one of them was extremely angry. The fragments of dishes and dishes on the floor and an overturned dining table were evidence of the anger in this person's heart.
"This bastard, instead of being grateful to Gu for taking care of him in every possible way since he left the palace, he has always been against Gu. Now I wish I could peel off his skin and drink his blood in order to relieve the hatred in my heart." He looked at the man standing there. In front of him, Zhang Qian, who had been dismissed from his post at this time, filled the whole courtyard with the roar of the prince.
As for the reason why the prince was so angry, besides having his money bag cut off, there was another thing that made the prince feel different. This time Zhang Qian was dismissed from his post, but he didn't even hear anything about it beforehand. I was waiting for him in the palace. After hearing the news, I rushed to the Wende Palace to ask for mercy, but I couldn't even enter the Wende Palace.
On the contrary, the eunuch sent by the emperor scolded him for not knowing how to share the worries of his father and for not being considerate of the people. As for other explanations, there are none. While this made the prince even more angry, it also created a sense of crisis. It's just that the prince didn't know how to reflect on himself, but blamed everything for Zhang Qian's dismissal on Huang Qiong, who took the old man to visit the refugee area.
Especially after the conflict between Huang Qiong and Zhang Qian last time, Zhang Qian immediately reported it to the prince. Now Zhang Qian has been dismissed from his post and his biggest money bag has been cut off. Apart from Huang Qiong, who was the culprit in the prince's eyes, he couldn't think of anyone else he could resent.
Looking at the roaring prince in front of him, Zhang Qian, another person involved in the room, was much calmer: "Your Highness, the minister's disrespect for the imperial decree is actually the same as treason in the heart of the emperor. In fact, how should the emperor deal with the minister? , even the minor ministers have no objections. The emperor just demoted me, and I can already say that he is merciful."
"The key now is that without my income of hundreds of thousands of dollars this year, His Highness's important affairs will be delayed. If this is the case, I deserve to die. The King of Hejian County, oh, should be called the King of England now Sorry, I still looked down on him too much. I never expected that the emperor’s attitude towards him was far from what it seemed.”
In fact, after the head-on conflict with Huang Qiong, Zhang Qian was mentally prepared to cause a disturbance. He knew that even if the King of England did not report his black case, the matter would probably not be hidden from the Emperor. The capital at the emperor's feet involves two princes. If the emperor really knows nothing, then the throne of this emperor may not be stable.
But the current emperor is not that kind of confused emperor. So he knew what happened that day and it was difficult for him to hide it from the emperor. Especially after learning that the emperor went to the Hejian County Prince's Mansion at that time and now the British Prince's Mansion, his heart sank even more. The emperor made an exception and went to the King's Palace. In fact, he was already expressing his attitude in disguise, showing that he was on the side of the King of England.
Especially on the day when the emperor came back from the British Palace, his father, who had been left by the emperor to take care of himself in the capital, was summoned to the palace overnight by the emperor. After coming back, his face was extremely ugly, and his appearance suddenly looked much older. But no matter how I asked, nothing was said. In addition to telling myself to take care of myself, I asked my family to pack their belongings and prepare to take the family back to their hometown to settle down.
After leaving the capital in Wuchang, Zhang Qian knew that something was not right, but he never thought that it would develop to such an extent. In his opinion, he has a father who serves the emperor front and back, and can be called the most favored minister in the dynasty. The emperor is nostalgic. He may be demoted or fined, but it is basically impossible to seize the official position.
But what he never expected was that the emperor would actually treat him like this. Although he wasn't beaten to death with a stick, he wasn't much better either. Guangnan West Road, that is the sphere of influence of the Guilin County Prince's Palace. And the current reigning Prince of Guilin is said to be an extremely difficult person to deal with.
Guangnan West Road has always been a barbarian land full of miasma. I have no idea whether I can return to the capital after going there. What's the difference between going to Yongzhou and becoming a fellow intellectual, and being dismissed from office and exiled? Didn't Liu Hedong's "Snake Catcher's Theory" talk about Yongzhou?
It is a land where unruly people come from poor mountains and rivers, and it is also a place where barbarians often rebel. Not to mention making money as a colleague there, it would be good if you can save your life and finish your term. And judging from the emperor's methods of dealing with him, it is estimated that before the prince ascends the throne, he basically has no hope of recovery.
Without his own financial support, the prince, whose qualifications were only average at best, would probably be even more disadvantaged in the battles with King Duan, King Jing, King Song, and even the newly minted King of England. If the prince is really dethroned, and he, the top thug of the prince family, is replaced, it will be difficult for him to have a happy death, let alone return to the capital.
For Zhang Qian, whose wealth and life were firmly tied to the prince, he was far more concerned about whether the prince could securely sit on the throne and eventually ascend the throne as emperor than he was about the corner he was assigned to. We need to pay more attention to it. Because he knew that the prince would make a comeback on his own day.
If the position of the crown prince and crown prince is really abolished, any other prince will ascend the throne and become the emperor. I was lucky enough to stay in the remote area of Yongzhou and save my life. Maybe, after someone comes to power, the first person to be killed is the prince himself, who is known to both the government and the public as the number one general, to establish his authority in order to intimidate the officials.
"It doesn't matter, I will think of other ways when you are gone. This afternoon, I have already said hello to several prime ministers of Zhongshu Province and the staff. I am preparing to transfer Cen Wenliang of Jinan Prefecture on Shandong Road to Beijing. , took over as Jing Zhaoyin. Although this person doesn’t have much contact with Gu on weekdays, he is a secret move inserted by Gu’an on Shandong Road.”
"In these years, with the full support of our people, he has an outstanding official reputation and outstanding political achievements. He had always been in private contact with Gu before, and almost no one in the court knew that he was Gu's man. Originally Gu planned to let him take over Shandong The road transfer envoy, or even the Shandong Road appeasement envoy."
"But now, we can only deal with the urgent needs first. You have been removed from the mission, and the person who takes over will have to think carefully. The official reputation must be the first thing that the father considers. However, there are so many refugees gathered in Jingzhao Mansion right now. Those nerds at Yushitai may not be able to handle it either. Jingzhao Mansion is the best place in the world, and official reputation alone cannot make this Jingzhao Yin."
"Therefore, in addition to having a clean and honest official reputation, the successor must also be a capable official. This person now has an official reputation and political achievements. I think my father will not have any big objections to transferring him to Beijing. So, don’t worry too much. As long as he comes to Beijing, this Jingzhao Mansion will still be our world."
"You may have been unlucky this time, but the magistrate and magistrate of Jingzhao Prefecture were also removed from their missions. Although we suffered huge losses, we still had some gains and losses. Think about that fellow magistrate, how much money did Gu's second brother spend? Forced him in. In order to drive this person out of Jingzhao Mansion, I tried my best but failed."
"Now he has also been sent to Yazhou, which can be said to have eliminated one of Gu's most annoying thorns. As for you, don't worry too much, isn't it Yongzhou? Gu will write a letter to Guilin County Prince, You Gu's face is here , even the Prince of Guilin County would not dare to deliberately embarrass you."
"You ended up in this situation because of Gu. Gu will never sit idly by. You have to work there for a year. After one year, even if Gu can't transfer you back to the capital, he will definitely find you a good job." After venting, the prince's mood became much more stable and his speech became more organized.
Hearing the prince's proposal to replace him, Zhang Qian couldn't help but feel chills. He knew that Cen Wenliang was born in the same batch of Jinshi as himself, and he could be considered to be in the same year. He was trying to make money for the prince in Jingzhao Mansion, but all he got was complaints. Almost all the powerful people in the capital were offended by him.
But this man in Jinan Prefecture is known as an official as clean as water. Not only do they receive excellent results in the official assessment every year, but they are also famous among officials. Originally, he thought that his old colleague could really endure poverty and was willing to serve the people with a clean officialdom. Looking at it now, it turns out that it was the prince's full support that prevented others from reaching out to make money.
It is not yet known how much of the money he made by scratching the ground and earning a reputation was given to him by the prince as a favor. But it is estimated that there are definitely not a few people who can make a fourth-grade official lose a penny. And besides one Cen Wenliang, how many more capable officials did the prince use the money he collected for him to fill, at least in his eyes?
Zhang Qian still doesn't know this. But Zhang Qian knew that this Cen Wenliang was probably by no means an exception. It turned out that the prince had such skills, and he really underestimated the prince. I'm afraid that by filling in these officials in this way, the crown prince is choosing his own team for his future accession to the throne.
It turns out that he also knows that people who are really used to govern the country cannot make too messy statements. After doing this for a long time, in the mind of the prince, he was just a tool for making money. Even if he can really secure his position as Crown Prince, will he really have a place in the court on the day he ascends the throne?
